Pros

Acosta, a 'food broker', is a leader in the Consumer Packaged Goods industry. I did feel valued as an employee and had many positive experiences in the years I was there. Some of the people managers were better suited for independent contributor roles, but some were fantastic at communicating and developing their teams. It is a great place to work, especially for those with designs on careers in the Retail industry.

Cons

People management skills at Acosta are not well developed in all people managers. Also, investments in technology are sometimes short-sighted. The company has a difficult time deciding when to buy and when to build solutions and testing of technology solutions in terms of usability and user acceptance is very poor.

Pros

Excellent, training focused culture. Poised for growth. Respect for human beings is treated as highest priority.

Cons

Leaders doing too much line level work, as a result of growing pains. Leaders tend to get burnt out as they move up.
